...I like peanut butter and brown sugar sandwiches.<br /><br />I feel so guilty about it, too.<br /><br />I don't know what food reminds me of life, but I do know that life is too short to eat bad food. If you are fortunate enough to be able to afford good food (I mean like fresh produce, which is cost prohibitive for some folks), you really ought to learn how to prepare it, and treat yourself to deliciousness.<br /><br />I hold that truth to be self evident.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08139599163464020063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-63391268647992026092011-03-08T10:35:57.827-05:002011-03-08T10:35:57.827-05:001.

But, you know, if I actually subscribed to that, I'd be in trouble. . .<br /><br />I dunno, I'll pretty much eat anything. When I was a kid, sauerkraut used to make me puke, but I like it fine now. . .<br /><br />I do have a certain predilection, tho, for mixing foods on my plate. Jen makes a ginger salmon recipe that she always serves with coleslaw, and I invariably stir them together into a salmon-slaw mishmash. And sometimes for breakfast, she'll serve up tabouli and cottage cheese, and that all gets mixed together, too. . .Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12044041773404411751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17765202.post-77954780365363873912011-03-07T09:32:19.877-05:002011-03-07T09:32:19.877-05:00I usually skip breakfast because I can't eat o...I usually skip breakfast because I can't eat on an empty stomach.
